That would only help GTK users.

Yes, indeed. But it's still probably the most popular toolkit among GNU/Linux users.

I thought we wanted to improve the
Emacs appearance on more than just one toolkit,

On e.g. Lucid all icons come from the same set, at least. We can improve them as well (all together), but it's a fairly different task.

Speaking of other platforms, I wonder if Windows and macOS also have have standard sets of icons.

It would make our task easier (and the end result more native-looking) if we could use a similar approach.
